Friends,
I would like to wish all our Christian readers a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
We begin this week’s newsletter with a look at what Talmud study looks like in Yeshivah High Schools. I recently posted an excellent article by Miriam Gamliel on the history of Jewish Education that I hope you all have read:

That article is a rare moment to see the Ashkenazi/Sephardi binary and its deleterious White Jewish Supremacy impact on today’s Judaism. Now we have a discussion between Yaakov Blau and Lisa Schlaff, two Modern Orthodox educators, who pretend to deal with the New Talmudism, but in the end give us only more warmed-over stale Washington Heights hash. My critique reviews some of the New Talmud issues and the way in which the Sephardic heritage is being erased by these Ashkenazi racists.
Speaking of the erasure of the Sephardic heritage, I once again look at Sarah Levin and her Ashkenazim-first HASBARAH outfit JIMENA. Ms. Levin has been a very busy bee of late, garnering many accolades – and cash awards – from the White Jewish Supremacy. It is a great triumph for the Ashkenazim – but a sad moment for Sephardim.
And Levin’s JIMENA is right there with Bari Weiss and The Rufo Institute, standing strong against the New Racial Consciousness. In my article I look at the new Austin University grift-scam that is meant to address the most important problem in America today: How to allow White Snowflakes to keep being Trumpscum racists. Weiss has assembled a crack team of those Snowflakes – and their Uncle Tom allies – to start up a school guaranteed to support the New Sedition. African-Americans should be on the alert!
I then present some material on the Austin project’s academic leader, Pano Kanelos, and its Trumpist deep pockets financial backer Joe Lonsdale. It is a meeting of the elites in a world of deep psychosis, where the New Fascism becomes Freedom of Thought.
There has been much discussion of Marc Tracy’s New York Times Magazine article on the unraveling of American Zionism. For those who have not read it – here it is, accompanied by a scathing critique from Right Wing HASBARAH macher Daniel Gordis. For Sephardim the only thing unraveling is our tradition. We have no allies in either the pro- or anti-Zionist camp(s) which are both committed to the White Jewish Supremacy.
As I have repeatedly stated, both the New Talmudism and the New Convivencia are committed to elevating Christianity above Rabbinic Judaism. Here we have a case found in Dru Johnson’s publication The Biblical Mind that presents us with a “be afraid what you wish for” dilemma. Johnson proudly published a piece praising Christian Anti-Nomianism by Henry LeFebvre, and found himself in a pickle over its implicit Supersessionism in the Pauline manner. Johnson then had to do some cleanup and brought in YU pedophile family-enabler Ari Lamm to give us the Jew side of things. It is all one big Neo-Con apologetics mess, which reminds us that Christianity is very much not as the New Talmudists and New Convivencia proponents would like it to be. As LeFebvre correctly stated – before he was so cruelly censored! – Christianity is designed to destroy the Jewish Law and present the Law of Grace. All else is just hot air.
